In the end, they took all the Polaroids, all the silver and C41 and hauled it down to Photo Laplante in Laval where they will run it through a Fuji Frontier. I don't expect them to come to me after asking for a real print either. They'll get what comes to them from the Frontier and think that's as good as it gets. That's what bugs me the most. Because the prints won't look that great, I, as the photographer, will probably be blamed. J -- Justin F.
